Robbie Williams’ wife has shared an incredible video to Instagram of husband Robbie Williams paying tribute to their daughter for her birthday. The singer was not able to be with his daughter for her celebrations as he had touring commitments, so to make it up to Teddy, Robbie orchestrated a huge rendition of Happy Birthday.
Sharing the clip to Instagram, Ayda wrote: “Teddy, even though daddy couldn’t be there, he wanted to wish you a happy birthday, too… and ok, @robbiewilliams, you sing ‘Happy Birthday’ better than I do… 🙂 #proudad #birthdaygirl #happybirthday.”
Robbie recorded the birthday message in Helsinki at the Olympiastadion, which can fit over 40,000 people in. In front of the thousands of fans, Robbie put the camera on himself and said: “Let me tell you this, you are my favourite oldest daughter”, before panning his phone to capture the crowd as he kicked off a Happy Birthday singalong.
Thousands of phones lit up as the crowd helped Robbie celebrate his daughter’s birthday. The proud dad finished the recording by telling Teddy that he loves her.
Although Robbie wasn’t able to celebrate Teddy’s birthday with her, Ayda and the family made sure she enjoyed turning thirteen. Ayda spent time in New York to mark the occasion.
She posted a series of snaps from the trip as she wrote: “A NYC birthday weekend full of adventure, laughter, and a whole lotta love …and @dualipa thank you for making Teddy’s dreams come true.”
She also spent time reflecting on the years since giving birth to her eldest daughter. She posted a picture of her pregnancy bump and the years in between.
She captioned the post “Life In The Fast Lane….and just like that, we have a teenager. 13 years have zoomed by, and we’ve loved every minute of your journey. Happy 13th Birthday Teddy!! It’s your time to shine …more.”
The couple have four children together, Theodora Rose [Teddy], thirteen, Charlton Valentine, nine, Colette Josephine, six, and Beau Benedict, five. The 45-year-old American actress first met Robbie in 2006 when they were set up on a blind date.
They got married in a ceremony at their Beverly Hills home in 2010 with friends and family in attendance. It has been a busy few months for the Williams’ family following the release of Robbie’s biopic ‘Better Man’ in December.
February saw Robbie thank fans as he shared the news that his latest album was a UK number 1 album. It was a landmark 15th UK number one album for the singer as a solo artist. The ‘Better Man (Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)’ was the soundtrack of the biopic.
The 51-year-old announced the release of Britpop on May 21 2025. He stated: “I set out to create the album that I wanted to write and release after I left Take That in 1995. It was the peak of Britpop and a golden age for British Music.
“I’ve worked with some of my heroes on this album, it’s raw, there are more guitars and it’s an album that’s even more upbeat and anthemic than usual.
“There’s some ‘Brit’ in there and there’s certainly some ‘pop’ too – I’m immensely proud of this as a body of work and I’m excited for fans to hear this album.”
